A few words about virtual signs differences
D.E.Belokurov
Along with the world of reality, in which we live, there are countless virtual universes created by the imagination of artists, writers, cinematographers, computer games and other creative personalities. Since its appearance, each of these worlds begins to live his own life, no less interesting and saturated than the one in which we live with you. They develop, they grow up, they show the features inherent in the real world. And far from the last place among these features, people are occupied and other reasonable in often unusual shaped clothes with no less unusual signs of differences that can already be safely regarded as representatives of a virtual umnorphological subculture.
It should be noted that the specified subculture is developing in geometric progression, and to date, the differences in the variety of types of uniforms and signs of differences is far ahead of real uniformology.
For example: This article attempts attempting to bring a brief overview of the uniform subculture created by world cinema, and, specifically, the difference signs used in films. And, since it is impossible to argue the immense ", it is proposed to focus on the most striking representatives of this community that has already become" classics ".
It is probably worth starting with the famous Saga, and, first of all, with such a sign space opera, as "Star Wars" George Lucas, whose first film was released in 1977. At the moment, 6 full-length films have been released, not counting the many animated TV series.
With the words of "Star Wars", Darth Vader, Luke Skywalker, Master iodine, Solo Hon and Chubakka, are immediately coming to the mind, the squadrons of A- and X-fighters, attacked the "Star of Death", are rushed before his eyes, and in the ears there is a characteristic "discharge" sound Participating in the desperate logging of the Jedi light blades. And all these events unfold against the background of the galactic confrontation of the two systems - the Galactic Empire Palpatine (Galactic Empire), which risen on the ruins of the Galactic (old) Republic (Galactic Old Republic), and supporters of this very republic, referred to as the rebel alliance - Rebel Alliance (full name Alliance For the restoration of the Republic, The Alliance to Restore the Republic). Well, a clear thing, where the war, there and the army with the fleet (in this case, star), and what army can do without uniform and the corresponding differences signs? So in the Universe of "Star Wars" there was a uni-physical component, and, apparently, who was led to people who did not have the slightest idea of \u200b\u200bergonomics and functionality. And, first of all, it concerns the signs of the difference in the Galactic Empire.
The ranks and titles of imperial officers were noted using a set of colored squares located on the left side of the chest, in combination with a certain amount of metal cylinders who played the role of multifunctional code devices that were placed in the "shoulder" pockets. In principle, I initially existed several versions of the said system, but from a certain moment, a system was adopted as a basic, shown in Fig. 1.1. Figure 1.2 demonstrates an example of carrying out signs of the difference between the officers of the Galactic Empire.
Of course, from an ergonomic point of view, such a system, to put it mildly, is heavy - just try for a split second to recalculate the squares on the signs of the differences in the senior and senior officers to decide on the rank.
As for the signs of the difference in ordinary and sergeant composition, the "secret of this great is" is ", since it failed to find them in one source, but what is found on the Internet, no more than fan fans of" Star Wars "fans. Of course, fan fiction also have the full right to exist, but cannot be considered as the original version.
Fig.1.1. Chest officer signs of the difference in the armed forces of the Galactic Empire (Fleet in Numertel, army in the denominator) |
The signs of the difference in the rebel alliance soldiers are more functional and understandable than imperial opponents, but, apparently, they created a large lover of the game in the bone or domino (Fig. 1.3). Well, how else to regard gray square stripes with a set of red and blue dots, located on the right or left side of the chest, with the help of which it was possible to identify the rank of the owner (Fig.1.4)?
Nevertheless, without looking at numerous flaws, one can boldly state that "Star Wars" made a worthy contribution to the development of virtual cinematic uniformology.
2. "Star Path" - Star Trek
To the next, even more large-scale cosmic opera, you can attribute the "Star Trek".
For the first time on the United Federation of Planets, we learned in 1966, when the first series of saga came to the screens. To the real moment the cinematic universe of the Star Route has 6 television serials and 12 full-length films.
The evolution of the uniform structure of the epic turned out to be much more saturated than that of the "star wars." It should be noted that in general only in the star fleet of the Federation (Fedration Starfleet), 9 signs of the differences that have replaced each other in the chronological sequence and covering the period in 200 years from 2180 to 2380 were used.
One of the features of the uniform of the starry fleet was its color depending on the type of service. At the same time, in 200 years of the described history, the color decision was constantly changed, but the main line was preserved almost unchanged: the red color of the uniform or details of the uniform testified to belonging to the command and tactical service, the yellow was given to the deposit of the engineering service, and the research corps was consolidated by Blue colour.
Since in this article is not possible to fully cope with the entire illustrative material relating to the difference differences of each era, in Fig. 2.1 presents the evolution of signs of distinction from 2180 to 2380. On the example of the captain.
 |

Fig.2.1. Evolution of signs of the distinction of the Star Fleet Federation on the example of the captain |
And Fig.2.2 shows the signs of the distinction of the stellar fleet of the federation in the final version, which has become a kind of "housing". The specified signs of differences were carried on the collar on the right, with the exception of the officer's flag - the latter were worn on the collar on both sides (Fig. 2.3). It is easy to see that the US-British Fleet System is adopted as the basis.
 |

Fig.2.2. "Shrestor" collar signs of the distinction of the star fleet |
In addition to the "horseshi", I would also like to note two more original signs of the differences, which were used in the full-length film "INTO DARKNESS), who goes in our rental called" Retribution ", and the Dark Mirror series (Dark Mirror) Of the 4th season of the television series belonging to the periods 2259-2270. and 2367, respectively (Fig.2.4 and 2.5). Figure 2.6 shows an example of carrying signs of differences in the film "Retribution".
All of the above applies only to the stellar fleet of the federation, in addition to which there were many more races that have their own armed forces and, accordingly, their own system of difference signs. And, of course, first of all, it is necessary to mention the Empire of Klingon (Klingon Empire).
Clingons the differences in the form of icons (Pins) were worn on the collar on the right side, and, although due to the inherent raw buoy vegetation, it is practically impossible to see them on the face, the officer line of signs of distinction was restored (Fig.2.7), which cannot be said About the line of the lower ranks.
3. "Babylon 5" - Babylon 5
Events in this 110 serial cosmic opera rotate around the Giant Space Station "Babylon 5", which plays the role of some reference point for peaceful settlement conflict situations galactic scale. The first series came out on the screens in 1993, the latter - in 1998.
As one of the main players in the galactic political arena, the Commonwealth of Planets, known as the Earth Alliance, which has enough powerful armed forces in the army and the star fleet. And, it is quite natural that the above-mentioned armed forces had their own uniforms and the original signs of differences, however, also based on the US-British system (Hollywood, well, what you will take it).
As a sign of distinction for the ordinary and sergeant composition and army, and the fleet was used by violated stripes, almost one in one repeated signs of the distinction of the US Army, only in Chevron down (Fig. 3.1), and officers differed on the straps of a rectangular shape (Fig.3.2 demonstrates epaulets Army officers, Fig.3.3 - Fleet). Example of wearing pursuit is presented in Fig.3.4
In general, the system is understandable and quite functional, not looking at some urgentness. At the very least, you do not need to count the squares to find out the rank of winner.
4. "Underwater Odyssey" - Seaquest DSV
The creators of this 59-serial television series, who delayed the eyes of the fans from 1993 to 1996, decided not to leave the native planet, quite reasonably reasoning that there were enough white spots on Earth, waiting for their discoverers. And, first of all, this concerns, of course, the depths of the World Ocean.
In the center of the narration - the adventures that have fallen at the crew of the Sixquest experimental battle submarine (Seaquest, literally "Sea Search") of the Navy of the United States of the Earth's Oceans (United Earth Oceans).
Insofar as we are talking On the fleet, there are two kinds of armed forces in the series - the fleet itself (NAVY) and "rapid response force" in format marine infantry (Marines).
As signs of differences, triangular stripes were used - twisted and collar. Fleet signs The differences are shown in Fig. 4.1, and Fig.4.2 shows the signs of the difference in the marines of the united oceans of the Earth. Fig. 4.3 shows examples of carrying no differences in uniforms.

It is necessary to pay tribute to cinematograms - the world of "underwater odissey" turned out well developed and solid, and the logical system of ranks and the corresponding signs of differences is extension.
5. Andromeda - Andromeda Ascendant
Andromeda - American-Canadian Space Opera, released in 2000
In total, from 2000 to 2005, 5 seasons of a total duration of 110 episodes were released, after which the series switched to the category "Completed".
The film epopay tells about the adventures of the crew of the Ascendant Star (Andromeda Ascendant), or simply "Andromeda", headed by Captain Dilan Khanth, in the Universe of the Systems Commonwealth, covering our Milky Way Galaxy, the Galaxy of the Triangle and the Andromeda Nebula.
From external and internal enemies Commonwealth interests protect the Armed Forces - High Guard (High Guard), consisting of a star fleet, called Argosa (The Argosy), and the army represented by Lancer Corps (Lancer Corps).
As the signs of differences and those, and others used icons or stripes located on the collar. At the same time, each type of armed forces, the Icons and the corresponding ranks of their own: Figure 5.1 presents the Fleet system, in Fig. 5.2. - Army. Fig.5.3 demonstrates an example of carrying no differences signs.

5.2. Signs Difference Case Lancers |
In my opinion, the signs of differences are quite functional (with the exception of the fleet of the lower ranks, again, ergonomics pumped up) - True, it seems that chess played in the life of their developers.
6. Star cruiser "Galaxy" - Battlestar Galactica
This film efficiency, perhaps, can be safely attributed to the category of "Phoenixes", then the case revived from the ash. The fact is that the first full-length film with such a name was released on screens in 1978, followed by a 24-serial television series, ended in 1979. Then, in 2003, a remake decision was made, and in the period from 2004 to 2009, 73 series were released, divided into 4 seasons, and in 2010 a 12-serial film "Caprika", which tells about the beginning of the confrontation of people and Sylons. And this is not counting several full-length films, also belonging to the Universe of the Galaxy Cruiser.
It should be noted that from a uniformical point of view, the cellopope was at the height. True, in the very system of ranks, some eclectics observed due to the mixing of army and fleet officers, but, in general, the general picture does not spoil.
The most brightly, this uniformological aspect is manifested in the series 2004-2009. As the difference signs, Icons (Pins) are used here, located on the collar (Fig. 6.1).
 |

Fig.6.1. Signs of the difference in the armed forces of mankind of the Universe of the Cruiser "Galaxy" (nipple in Numertel, Army in the denominator) |
It is clear, convenient and quite ergonomically (Fig. 6.2).
And, most importantly, original, functionally, and from aesthetic point of view, it looks quite well. It seems to me.
7. "Star True" - StarShip Troopers
Although the basis of the "star landing" Paul Verkhovna Lemo the same name of the American fantastic writer Robert Hainline, except for the very idea of \u200b\u200bthe opposition of people and beetles and the main actors, almost nothing of the general film and the book do not have. At the same time, the interpretation of events in a kinema personally I like much more, not looking at numerous technical and logical flashes - well, here, as they say, taste and color.
The film was released in 1997 and immediately conquered the volatile popularity in the medium of lovers of the genre. Subsequent franchise films were not so attractive, nevertheless, the universe of the "Star Design" took a strong position along with the cinematic worlds already mentioned in this article.
That immediately rushed into the eyes after the first viewing - a well-developed uniform structure with clear and functional signs of differences (Fig. 7.1) - at least as concerning the daily form of mobile infantry clothing, the main shock force of the federation (Fig. 7.2).
At the same time, the sign of the sign of the distinction of the Star Fleet Federation looks less intelligible; In any case, with all the desire, to build some kind of slender sequence failed. Nevertheless, the mentioned signs of differences in the film are present (Fig. 7.3), and perhaps a deeper analysis will allow the entire line of the entire line.
It is clear that on the Internet and the mentioned line can be found, but - alas - all this, again, exclusively fan fiction.
8. "Safari number 6"
In 1990, the domestic film "Safari No. 6" of a little-known director and Scenarist Andrejs Abols, who tells about the screens civil War In a certain fictional country. The plot is originality did not differ (a detachment under the command of Captain Ander and Sergeant Geza needed to destroy a certain strategic object, and during the operation, the participants gradually realize that they were only pawns in someone's own game), and the budget was clearly not at height, so That the film at the box office passed almost unnoticed, not looking at the fact that Viktor Avilov played the main role in him.
At the same time, this film is of great interest from a uniformal point of view, since in it for the first time in the Soviet cinema, the system of virtual signs of differences was used. As the latter, disks of red and white colors were performed, which in a certain amount (depending on the title) were attached to the valve of the left chest pocket (Fig. 8.1). In principle, it is clear and affordable, and, most importantly, inexpensive (Fig.8.2).
From the uniform point of view, this film is interesting because, in fact, after Safari number 6, he turned out to be the second domestic film, which uses fictional differences signs.
Unfortunately, the entire line of signs could not be restored, it was necessary to restrict ourselves to three ranks - really ordinary, Capral and Rothmistra (Fig. 9.1). The candidate in a truly ordinary, understandable thing, the differences did not wear signs.
Signs Differences were located on the left side of the breast of the Uniform of the Combat Legion (Fig. 9.2).
It is not entirely clear whether the color decision of the stripes is any semantic load or not.
Instead of imprisonment
As noted above, this article is an attempted view of virutal cinematic uniformology exclusively in the context of the difference signs. But this is just the top of the iceberg, whose name is a creative fantasy. And God forbid that this iceberg does not melted in the ocean of everyday.

Sita - recognized mega-villains in the universe of "Star Wars", but by the time of the "new hope" they acquired a crowd of crucial to the uniform, which are dragging chestnuts from fire for them. The officers of the imperial armed forces and the fleet commanded the Emperor of the Imperial Armed Forces and the fleet commanded in the Emperor Palpatine and Darta Waider Commanded by AT-AT and Mighty Star Destroyers; These professionals with impeccable militaryistic learning dark magic of their lords sometimes seemed something eccentric.
Star Wars Insider magazine presents to your attention the biography of the ten best imperial officers, which can be seen on the screen in the classic trilogy of "Star Wars". This is the combat officers in the service of the empire, and not politicians. Therefore, sorry, the fans of Tarkin, but the Grand Muffa is a politician, not a warrior. The same can be said about Muffe Jergershrode from "Jedi's Return" - especially since there is nothing to say about him.
Lieutenant Captain Bast *
Moradmin Bastri (Moradmin Bast), since childhood, accustomed to hunt a large game on fool-kane (Dura-Kahn), considered the rebel alliance dangerous beast, which cannot be underestimated. During the attack on the development star, military analysts reported to the Bast that there is a small, but, nevertheless, the real danger of the fact that the pilots of the rebels will be able to reset a pair of proton torpedo to the graduation valve of a star star, which has only two meters in the diameter. Bast, fearing the fact that the enemies use this gap, immediately submitted this information to Grand Moff Tarkina.
Interesting detail: In the official scenario of "New Hope", Basta is called simply "officer". He got his name later, with the release of the desktop card game from Decipher.
Some time ago there were conflicting rumors that the Captain-Lieutenant Bast could survive during the destruction of the first star of death, because he lit up in the Vader team in the film "Star Wars Holiday Special". However, the truth is that mounting trimming from the final version of the "new hope" (including the scenes with the Bast) were reused to create "Holiday Special". After a recent analysis of the "New Hope" it was found that the Bast had been on the stars of death for the entire scene, which allowed Llandu Chi, Lucasfilm expert on continuity, rank Basta to the number of died during the battle of Javin.
Admiral Motti.
Smug and indulgent - as long as the suffocating grip of strength did not tame his nestors, - Admiral K. Antonio Motti was a living embodiment of imperial arrogance. The death stars in the team triumvirate (along with General Tagge and Grand Moffy Tarkin), Motti could be one of the first rebellious commander of the empire, if they had enough time to exercise their plan with Tarkin - to capture the star of death and overthrow the emperor. Unfortunately, Motti realized the fallacy of his confidence in the invulnerability of a combat station only at the moment when the explosions rummage began.
An interesting detail: in the radio station of the "New Hope", Motti is presented as an ambitious officer who joined Tarkin's spoke. Motti makes invaluable hints on the fact that Tarkin could overthrow the emperor if I used a combat station to cause a coup. "The New Essential Guide to Characters" goes even further and opens to the reader that the wife of Tarkina (which can be seen in the "Classic Star Wars: The Early Adventures" Rassa Maning) comes from the Motti family, and that Tarkina's marriage was a union for the calculation between these Two influential families.
Mott's name has never been mentioned on the screen or in an extended universe. He was invented by George Lucas himself during his appearance on Conan's show about Bryan "Late Night With Conan O" Brien "in May 2007. When Jordan Scholanski's cozer, a regular expert "Last Night" in the "Star Wars", tried to knock the guest with a sense by asking a bunch of questions about any nonsense, then the question of the full name of Motti George Lucas answered a joke: "Conan Antonio Motti".
Commander ** Jir
When Lieutenant Dane Jir (Dain Jir) once spoke out against one of Vader's proposals, he immediately began to whisper: "Well, now he does not live." However, instead of depriving the imperial officer of life, Vader raised him to the commander.
Jir, along with Admiral Pipe and Captain Janus Bonn, was one of those few officers who managed to deserve respect for Vader. The Dark Lord valued the rigid straightness of the jeery more than the pleasing speeches of imperial lackers. Jir, who knows his own business, the ruthless warrior, which was part of the 501th Legion of SturmTruppers, immediately determined that the Princess Leia Organ, who preferred the rebel to the Senate, would not betray his friends - even if her life would threaten danger.
Interesting detail: This hot-tempered officer from the "New Hope", who damed to raise a voice at Darth Vader ("She will die before anything tells you!"), I found my name only after the release of the desktop card game from Decipher.
In the video game "Battlefront II", the 501th legion of the sturger-operator is named by the command responsible for the assault "Tantive IV" - so the commander of the jir by rearly became the alleged member of this outstanding team. His name, in all likelihood, is improvisation on the topic "Danger" - "Danger".
Commander Pradi
Nahdonnis Praji (NaHdonnis Praji) was the most courtesy when it was about the relationship with higher persons, but he always showed intolerance to his subordinates. Nevertheless, he was not hotbed; Perhaps the most composure with which he muttered subordinates, and saved his life when he led Darth Vader.
When Vader ordered the Praji commander to take under personal control of the search for the drawings of the star of death on Tatooin, Pradi interpreted the word "personal" very creative. As in the case of other similar orders, Praji rearmed this task to one of the subordinates, in this case - the captain of the sturger-operator kosh (KOSH), calculating all the merits to himself. However, this time, Pradie had to pay for such a connivance: C-3PO and R2-D2, together with drawings, slipped out of him on board "Millennial Sokol". But Pradii reported to the dark lord about this news with dignity.
Interesting detail: to maintain the continuity of "star wars" is sometimes incredibly difficult. Prague commander is the best confirmation of this. And one of the Card Games Decipher, and the Heroes In Hiding Children's book came about at the same time. In both sources, the name of the officer was indicated, which headed the hunt for C-3PO and R2-D2 on Tatoo in the "New Hope". Decipher called his "Praji Commander", and the Children's Book - "Captain Kos". But, since the drawing of the officer in the children's book was fuzzy, the misunderstanding managed to quickly correct.
Pradie presumably comes from an influential family; His relatives who bear the same name are found in the Starwars.com data bank and in an online comic "Evasive Action: Recruitment".
General Tagge
In the conference hall of the Star Death, you can see Cassio Tagge (Cassio Tagge), which affects the enthusiasm of Admiral Motti, like a cold soul, warning about strengths Rebel Alliance and Star Vulnerability. Given the fact that in the battle of Javin (where Tagge broke up with life) the rebels won the skepticism of the general can be viewed as insight bordering the foreseeration, and healthy pragmatism.
General Tagge was a member of the noble house Tagge, whose representatives owned the Tagge & Co production conglomerate and were one of richest people In the Empire. The house of Tagge stands behind many smaller conspiracies that had a place between the battle of Javine and the battle at Endor. Brothers General Tagge, Ulric, Silas and Orman, as well as their sister Domina, caught Luke Skywalker to trap "Omega Frost" (special weapons designed to destroy the rebel fleet; see Comic "Star Wars 31: Return to Tatooine" - Nexu ), forced the hatch to resort to the fight on the light swords in the "Monastery" (something from the same opera - Nexu) and almost killed the Lando Calrissian in the "Red Nebula" (see the comic "Star Wars 50: The CRIMSON Forever" - NEXU).
Interesting detail: Of all the Bakenbard of the 1970s era, which felt the inhabitants of the star of death in the "New Hope", the Bengnebards of General Tagge stand out most of all. Although there would be reasonable to believe that Tagge died during the climax of the film, the character according to General Ullur Tagge appears in the 1970s in the comic book on the "Star Wars" from Marvel.
In the column of reader's letters "Star Words", the editors explained that Ulric Tagge is the same character as General Tagge from New Hope. It was assumed that he managed to avoid death during the destruction of the star of death. However, with the approach of the new century Starwars.com, "S Databank explained that Ulrica is a native brother Cassio Tagge, and not at all the same person. At the same time, the general name was announced - this was done in the GEONOSIS AND THE OUTER RIM WORLDS edition .
The young Cassio Tagge appears in the online web "Evasive Action: End Game": there he discovers how unreasonably move the way Darta Vader.

* Chief Bast - I translated it as a "Captain Lieutenant", but I would be glad if someone tells the more correct translation from the point of view of the Army (Fleet) Jewer. Perhaps here is just a senior officer.
** Commander is a multifaceted word that can be translated as "commander" (position, not a title), and as "Commander", and even as "captain III rank". There are other options? Write.

P.S. Encryption and vensels on the shoulder do not specifically spin.
Very often you have to hear the question "Why the headquarters of the officers and the generals begged a two-star headquarters, and not the one of the ober officers begun?" When in 1827, the in Russian Armenia appeared on the Epoletas in the qualities of the signs of Varia, General Major received on Epolet at once two sts.
There is Version that one star was relying to the brigadier - this chin did not assign himself since Paul I, but to 1827 still existed

In this NѣT, anything strange, in this and the Epolets themselves came to Rossіya Frances. There is no one to do any of the general jack of the Russian Imperial Army when not. This version seems to be plausible.
As for Major, he received two ststers according to the analogue of the two-star domains of Rossіskago General Major of that time.
The only excluded was the signs of various in the Gusar shelves with the front and ordinary (everyday) forms, at which the pursuit of the videos were trapped.
Shoulder cords.
Vmѣsto Epole Kavaleryskago sample from Gusar on Dolomakh and mentics are

orange for the regiments, virgins of the instrumental Metal, gold or whites for regiments, IMATIC-SECRICAL METALLET-SERVERY.
These shoe cords form a ring at the sleeve, and the collar loop, fastened on a uniform buttons, sewn up on the floor from the collar seam.
For the excellent zvaniy on the cords, Gombochki is put on (ring from the same scking cord that covers the shoulder cord):
-U. efreitor - one, one color with the cord;
-U. unters-Officers three-sided gombochki (bats of Georgievskaya thread), the number, like stripes on the pursuit;

Cutting cords Ober and headquarters do not differ in any way.
The officer headquarters and generals have a slightly excellent on the forms: on the collar Dolomana at the generals wide and the Golden Galoon wide to 1 1/8 of the armor, at the headquarters - golden or silver galloon in 5/8 top, imaging for the whole length "

And the Officers of the Galun officers does not rely.

The brass cords of the Ober, the headquarters and generals did not differ anyiam. To actions to distinguish the Cornet from General Major, it was possible only in appearance and the wiring of Galun on the collapses and, in a hand shelves, on the collar.

The Russian army in its modern sense began to be created by Emperor Peter I at the end of the XVIII century. System military ranks The Russian Army was partly under the influence of European systems, partly influenced by the historically established purely Russian rank system. However, at that time, military ranks did not exist in the fact that we used to understand. There were specific military units, there were quite specific positions and, accordingly, their names. He was, for example, the title "Captain" was "Captain", i.e. Commander company. By the way, in a civilian fleet and now, a person leading the crew of the vessel is called "Captain", a person leading seaport, called "Captain Port". In the XVIII century, many words existed several in another than now their meaning.
So "General"Mean -" Chief ", and not just the" highest warlord ";
"Major" - "Senior" (senior among regimental officers);
"Lieutenant" - "Assistant"
"Flegel" - "Jr".
"The Tabel about the ranks of all the ranks of military, Stat and the courtiers, which in which ranks are gained" in the action of the Emperor Petra decree on January 24, 1722 and existed on December 16, 1917. The word "officer" came to Russian from German. BUT B. german language, as in English, this word is much wider. With regard to the army under this term, they understand all military leaders in general. In a narrower translation, it means "employee", "Clerk", "employee". Therefore, it is quite natural - "Unter-Officers" - the younger commanders, "Ober-Officers" - Senior Commanders "," Headquarters "-Baby employees", "General" are the main ones. Unter-officers also in those days were not the titles, but were posts. Private soldiers were then called in their military specialties - Musketeer, Pikiner, Dragun, etc. There was no name "Private", and the "soldier", as Peter I wrote, means all the servicemen ".. The Vynyago General to the Musketeer's Musketeer's Musketeer, Connago or Peshago ..." Therefore, the soldiers and non-commissioned officers in the table did not enter the table. Well known to us the names "Podoruk", "Lieutenant" existed in the list of the ranks of Russian troops long before the beginning of the formation of a regular army, Peter I, to designate military personnel, which are assistants of the captain, then the Batch Commander; And they continued to be used within the framework of the table, as the Russian-speaking synonyms of the post "Unter-Lieutenant" and "Lieutenant", then mean "subgroty" and "Assistant". Well, or if you want, - "Assistant officer for instructions" and "officer for orders". The name of the "ensign" as a more understandable (wearing banner, Prapor), quickly replaced the unauthorized "FENDRI", which meant "a candidate for an officer's office. Over time he was the process of separating the concepts of" position "and" title. "After the beginning of the XIX century, these concepts have already been separated quite clearly. With the development of war management means, the advent of technology, when the army has become quite large and when it took to compare the official position of a fairly large set of post names. Here is the concept of "title" it became often not necessary to donate the concept " position".
However, in the modern army, the position, if you can put it, mostly the title. According to the Charter, seniority is determined by the post and only with equal positions are considered older that who has the above rank.
According to the "Range Tabel", the following ranks were introduced: civil, military infantry and cavalry, military artillery and engineering troops, military guard, military fleet.
In the period from 1722-1731, in relation to the army, the system of military ranks looked like this (in brackets the corresponding position)
Lower ranks (ordinary)
By specialty (Grenadir. Fuseller ...)
Unter-officers
Capral (part-commander)
Fourier (deputy poster deputy)
Kaptenarmus
Subpenser (Starin company, battalion)
Sergeant
Feldwebel
Ensign (Fenrick), Shtyk-Juncker (ART) (platoon commander)
Podoruk
Lieutenant (Deputy Comandor Company)
Captain-lieutenant (company commander)
Captain
Major (Deputy Commander Battalion)
Lieutenant colonel (battalion commander)
Colonel (regiment commander)
Brigadier (Commander Brigades)
General
Major General (commander of the division)
Lieutenar General (Corps Commander)
General-Annef (General-Feldzekhmeister) - (Army Commander)
General Felmarshal (Commander-in-Chief, Honorary Title)
In the Life Guard, bsley bsley in two classes are higher than in the army. In army artillery and engineering troops, ranks for one class are higher than in infantry and cavalry. In the period 1731-1765 The concepts "title" and "position" begin to be divided. So, in the state of the field infantry regiment, 1732, when specifying the staff, it is already written not just the rank of "apartment", and the position indicating the title: "Apartment Master (Liestsky Rank)." In relation to the officers of the partition of the concepts of "position" and "the title" is not yet observed. In the army "FENDRIK" Replaced " praporchik ", in cavalry - "Cornet". The titles are introduced "Second-major" and "Premier Major" During the reign of Empress Catherine II (1765-1798) In army infantry and cavalry the titles are introduced junior and Senior Sergeant, Feldfel disappears. From 1796 In the Cossack parts of the names of the ranks, the same with the ranks of the army cavalry are set and equal to them, although Cossack parts continue to be listed as an irregular cavalry (not part of the army). In the cavalry there is no rank of a porquet, and rothmistra Corresponds to the captain. During the reign of Emperor Paul I (1796-1801) The concepts of "title" and "position" during this period are already separated quite clearly. The ranks in the infantry and artillery Paul I did a lot of useful for strengthening the army and discipline in it. He forbade the minors of noble children in the shelves. All recorded in the shelves were obliged to serve real. He introduced the disciplinary and criminal liability of officers for soldiers (maintaining life and health, training, clothing, domestic conditions) forbade the use of soldiers as work force in the estates of officers and generals; introduced awarding soldier signs of the devices of the orders of St. Jung and the Maltese Cross; introduced the advantage in promoting officers who completed military schools in the ranks; ordered to promote in ranks only on business qualities and the ability to command; introduced leave for soldiers; limited the duration of the leaves of officers in one month per year; He fired a large number of generals from the army who did not meet the requirements of military service (old age, illiteracy, disability, lack of time for a long time, etc.). The ranks are introduced in the lower ranks ordinary younger and older salary. In cavalry - wahmistra (Starshin company) for Emperor Alexander I (1801-1825) Since 1802, all nonsense officers of the noble estate are called "Junker". Since 1811, the Gin "Major" has been abolished in artillery and engineering troops and the rank of "ensign" during the reigns of the emperors Nikolai I (1825-1855) , very much done for ordering the army, Alexander II (1855-1881) and the beginning of the reign of the emperor Alexandra III (1881-1894) Since 1828, Army Cossacks since 1828 are given, different from the army cavalry (in the Life Guard Cossack and Life Guard Ataman title shelves like the entire Guards Cavalry). The Cossack parts themselves are translated from the discharge of an irregular cavalry to the army. The concepts "title" and "position" during this period are already divided completely. Under Nicolae I disappears a disappearance in the name of Unter-Officer Chinov. From 1884, the rank of ensign was left only for wartime (assigned to the time during the war, and with its expiration all the ensigns are subject to or dismissing or resigning or they should be assigned a sampler rank. Chin Kornet in cavalry is maintained as the first officer rank. He is on the class below the infantry pitch, but in the cavalry there is no rank of a porquet. These are the ranks of infantry and cavalry. In the Cossack parts of the officers' classes equal to cavalry, but have their own names. In this regard, the rank of military elder, previously the former Major now becomes equal to lieutenant colonel
"In 1912, the last General Field Marshal Milyutin Dmitry Alekseevich dies, who held the post of military minister from 1861 to 1881. More this chin was not assigned to anyone, but it was nominally, this chin was preserved"
In 1910, the Chin of the Russian General Feldmarshal was assigned to the King of Montenegro Nicholas I, and in 1912 the King of Romania Carol I.
P.S. After the October Revolution of 1917, the decree of CEC and SNK (Government of the Bolsheviks) of December 16, 1917, all military ranks were canceled ...
The officers of the royal army were arranged completely different than modern. First of all, the lumens were not part of Galun, as we have been done since 1943. In engineering troops, two nurtured galoon or one spoil and two headquarters of the officer Galun were simply laid on the pursuit. For each kind of troops, the type of Galun was particularly determined. For example, Gusar Type "Gusar Zig-Zag" was used in the hussar shelves on officers. On the chains of military officials used Galun "Civil". Thus, the lumens of the officer should always be the same color as the field of soldiers. If the epaulets in this part did not have color edging (releases), as I say, it was in the engineering troops, then the releases had the same color as the lumeks. But if it had a color release in part, it was visible around the officer pursuit. It was visible around the officer's pattern. Silver-colored buttons without sideboards with an extruded double-headed eagle, sitting on crossed axes. Snakes were embroidered with gold thread on the pursuit, and the encryption was metal gilded overhead numbers and liteers, or monger monograms (who should be). At the same time, wearing the wearing of gilded forged metal stars were widespread, which were put on only on the epoletas.
The placement of stars was not rigidly installed and was determined by the sizes of encryption. Two stars were made to place around the encryption, and if it filled the entire width of the pursuit, then above it. The third asterisk was to be placed so that with two lower ones to form an equilateral triangle, and the fourth asterisk is somewhat higher. If on the pursuit of one asterisk (at the ensign), then she was placed where the third asterisk is usually attached. Special dates were also metal gilded overlines, although it was often possible to meet and embroidered with golden thread. The exception was the intelligence of aviation, which oxidized and had a color of silver with a patina.

2. Epole for lower ranks Ulan 2 Liebe of Ulansky Kurland Regiment 1910
3. EPULET. full General from Cavalry Sweets His imperial majesty Nicholas second. The silver device of the Epolet testifies to the high military rank of the owner (only only Marshal)
About stars on the pursuit
For the first time, forged five-pointed asterisks appeared on the epolsters of Russian officers and generals in January 1827 (even during the time of Pushkin). One golden star began to wear ensigns and the corps, two - followers and major generals, three - guards and lieutenant-generals. Four - headquarters and headquarters-Rothmisters.
A C. april 1854 Russian officers began to wear shied stars on newly established shoulders. With the same goal in the German army, Rhombic was used, in the British - nodules, in the Austrian - six-pointed asterisks.
Although the designation of military rank on the pursuit is a characteristic feature of the Russian army and German.
The Austrians and the British should have a purely functional role: they were sewed from the same material as the nipper so that the shoulder straps would not slip. And Chin was denoted on the sleeve. A five-pointed star, a pentagram - a universal protection symbol, security, one of the oldest. IN Ancient Greece It could be found on the coins on the doors of the houses, horshes and even on the cradle. Druids Gaul, Britain, Ireland, a five-pointed star (Druid Cross) was a symbol of protection against external evil forces. And so far it can be seen on the window glasses of medieval gothic buildings. The Great French Revolution revived the five-pointed stars as a symbol of the ancient God of Marsa war. They were indicated by the rank of commanders of the French Army - on the heads of the heads, epoletas, scarves, on Faldah Mundir.
Military reforms of Nikolai I copied the appearance of the French army - so the stars "rolled" from the French skyscland to the Russian.
As for the British army, then during the time of the Anglo-Board War, the stars began to move on epaulets. This is about officers. At the lower ranks and Warrent officers, the signs of differences remained on the sleeves.
In the Russian, German, Danish, Greek, Romanian, Bulgarian, American, Swedish and Turkish armies, the differences were the differences. In the Russian army, the circuit marks differences were for the lower ranks and for officers. Also in the Bulgarian and Romanian armies, as well as in Swedish. In the French, Spanish and Italian armies, signs differences were placed on the sleeves. IN greek army At the officers on the pursuit, on the triggers at the lower ranks. In the Austro-Hungarian army, the signs of the differences between officers and the lower ranks were on the collar, those pets. IN German army Shoulder straps signs Differences on the pursuit were only among the officers, the lower ranks differed among themselves along the galoon on the collars and the collar, as well as a uniform buttons on the collar. The exception was the TN KOLONIAL TRUPPE, where as additional (and in a number of colonies of the main) signs of the lower ranks performed chevrons made of silver galunas of the 30-45 years of the A-La Hypraight.
It is interesting to note that under the service and field form of a peacetime, i.e., with a sample of 1907, the officers of the hussar regiments, they also wore epaulets of the other parts of the Russian army somewhat different. For hussar pursuit used galun with the so-called "hussar zigzag"
The only part where the straps were worn with the same zigzag, except for the Gusar regiments, was the 4th battalion (from the 1910 g of the regiment) of the arrows of the imperial surname. Here is a sample: Rothmistra's pursuit of the 9th Kiev Gusar Regiment.
Unlike the Gusar of Germany, which wore the same sewing a uniform, distinguished only by the color of the fabric. With the introduction of the shoulder straps of the protective color and zigzags were disappeared, the encryption was pointed to the hussar. For example, "6 g", Ie 6th Gusarsky.
But in general, the field shape of the hussar was a Dragun sample, those general ones. Effective honors pointing to belonging to Gusarames pointed out a module with a socket in front. However, the hussar regiments were allowed to wear chakchirs at field uniform, but not to all the shelves, but only the 5th and 11th. Wearing a chakchir with the rest of the shelves was a kind of "unknown". But during the war, this was found, as well as wearing some officers sabers, instead of a regular Dracoon checkers, which had believed during field gear.
The photograph shows the Rothmist of the 11th Isvish Hussar Regiment K.K. Background Rossenshild-Paulin (sits) and Juncker of the Nikolaev Cavalry School K.N. Background Rosshild Powlin (also subsequently an officer of the Izyumian regiment). Rothmist in a summer front or output form, i.e. In a sample of 1907, a sample of 1907, with Galoon patterns and a number 11 (notice, on the officers of the quanel regiments of peacetime, there are only numbers, without letters "g", "d" or "y"), and blue chakchirs, wearable by officers, this shelf With all the forms of clothing.
Regarding the "universities", during the years of World War I was encountered, apparently, and wearing the haunted pursuit of peaceful time by the hussars officers.
on the Galuine Officer's chains of the cavalry regiments, only numbers were affixed, and the listers were absent. What is confirmed by photos.
Ceaard-ensign - From 1907 to 1917 in the Russian army, the highest military rank for non-commissioned officers. Signs Differences for Ceerage-Incomarters were installed strainer epaulers with a large (more officer) asterisk in the upper third of the stray on the symmetry line. The title was assigned to the most experienced ultra-voluntary non-commissioned officers, with the beginning of the First World War, he began to assign him to the rewarders in the order of encouragement, often immediately before assigning the first oborce officer's title (ensign or Cornet).
From Brockhaus and Efron:
Ceaard-ensign, Military. During mobilization with a lack of persons satisfying the conditions for the production of officer Chin, Nek. UNTER-Officers are assigned the title of Z. Inport; Fixing the duties of the younger. officers, Z. Prap. Limited in the rights of movement.
Interesting History of China upprovers. In the period 1880-1903 This chin was assigned to graduates of Junkers schools (not to be confused with military schools). In the cavalry, he corresponded to the rank of Estandard-Juncker, in the Cossaching troops - Uphlorinage. Those. It turned out that it was a certain intermediate title between the lower ranks and officers. Undergradukers who graduated from the School of School on the 1st category were produced in officers no earlier than September graduation, but outside vacancies. Graduated from the 2nd category, were produced in officers not previously began next year, but only on vacancies, and it turned out that some were waiting for production for several years. According to the order in BB No. 197 for 1901, with production in 1903 the last submaroes, Estandard-Junckers and the Uplanzhih these ranks were canceled. It was associated with the beginning of the conversion of UNCERSK Schools in the military.
Since 1906, the Chin of the Upprovers in the infantry and cavalry and the wind-air in Cossachih, the troops began to be assigned to a short nonsense officers who graduated from a special school. Thus, this title has become the maximum for the lower ranks.
Underpracter, Estandard-Juncker and Pilhorugis, 1886:
Pursuit of headquarters-Rothmister Cavalgardian regiment and pursuit of headquarters-captain of the Life Guard of the Moscow Regiment.
The first pursuit is stated as a chase of the officer (Rothmist) of the 17th Nizhny Novgorod Draghogo Regiment. But Nizhny Novgorod should have a dark green release along the edge of the pursuit, and the monogram must be applied. And the second pursuit is presented as a pursuit of a pursuit of the Guards artillery (with such a monitor in the Guards artillery, there were only two batteries in the Guards artillery: the 1st battery of the Life Guard of the 2nd Artillery Brigade and the 2nd Battery of the Guards Equestrian Artillery), but the pursuit of the pursuit should not Lee to have an eagle with guns in this case.
Major (Up. Mayor - more, stronger, meaningful) - the first title of senior officers.
The title arose in the 16th century. Major Neus is responsible for the guard and the nutrition of the regiment. When the shelves were divided into battalions, the battalion commander as a rule became a major.
In the Russian army, Chin Major was introduced by Peter I in 1698, in 1884 abolished.
Premier Major - headquarters of the Chin in the Russian Imperial Army of the XVIII century. Tested by the VIII class "Tabel about ranks".
According to the charter of 1716, Majors were divided into premier major and second major.
The premier Major was heading to the regiment of the system and inspection parts. Commanded the 1st battalion, and in the absence of the regiment commander - regiment.
The separation on the prime and second major was canceled in 1797. "
"It appeared in Russia as Chin and the position (Deputy Commander of the Regiment) in Streletsky Troops at the end of the XV - early XVI century. In the Sagittsky shelves, as a rule, lieutenant colonels (often" graded "origin) performed all the administrative functions for the Streetsky head appointed from the number of nobles or Boyar. In the 18th century and early XVIII century, the title (Chin) and the position was called as a half-ring due to the fact that the lieutenant colonel usually besides the other duties commanded the second "half" regiment - rear ranks in the construction and reserve (until the battalion construction of regular soldier regiments is introduced) . Since the introduction of a table of ranks and before its cancellation in 1917, the title (Chin) of the lieutenant colonel was referred to the VII Class of the table and until 1856 gave the right to the hereditary nobility. In 1884, after the abolition of the title of Major in the Russian army, all Majors (with the exception of dismissed Or stained themselves with unseemless misconduct) are produced in lieutenant colonels.

In army infantry shelves to designate the ranks of the efreitor, ml. and st. The officers was used by the army white tape.
1. Since 1991 exists in the army only in war time.
With the beginning of the Great War, ensigns produced military schools and schools of ensigns.
2. Incorrower of the stock, in peacetime, on the chains of the ensign wears the Lower Rib Gunnaya Stripe against the instrument.
3. Customer-ensign, in this title in wartime, when mobilizing military units, with a lack of junior officers, rename the lower ranks from non-commissioned officers with educational values, or from Feldfelves without

The convicts-curtaires wore a valid service rayer with nastened at the bottom of the pursuit of a gown dashboard.
Cossack ranks and titles
At the lowest step of the service staircase stood an ordinary Cossack corresponding to the ordinary infantry. Next, followed by a conjunction, who had one skip and corresponding to the Efreitor in the infantry. The next stage of the service staircase is the Junior District and Senior District, corresponding to the younger Unter-Officer, Unter-Officer and the Senior Unter-Officer and with the number of skies characteristic of the modern sergeant. Further followed the rank of Wahmistra, which was not only in Cossacks, and in unter-Officer Cavalry and horse artillery.
In the Russian Army and Gendarmery, the Vakhmistra was the closest assistant to the commander hundreds, a squadron, batteries on construction preparation, internal order and economic deeds. Chin Wahmistra corresponded to the rank of Feldofebell in the infantry. According to the position of 1884, introduced by Alexander III, the following in the Cossack troops, but only for wartime, was the reservoir, the intermediate title between the subpenser and the ensign in the infantry introduced also in wartime. In peacetime, except for the Cossack troops, these ranks existed only for stock officers. The following degree in the Ober-officer ranks - Horounjium, corresponding to the suborpecus in the infantry and cornet in regular cavalry.
According to the official position, the youngest lieutenant was suitable in the modern army, but carried straps with a blue lumen on the silver field (applied color of the Don Troops) with two asterisks. In the old army, compared with the Soviet, the number of spars was one more. The Deli followed the secondary - Ober officer Chin in the Cossack troops, corresponding to the guarantor in the regular army. Sotnik wore straps of the same design, but with three asterisks, corresponding to the modern lieutenant in its position. Higher step - picked up.
This rank was introduced in 1884 in regular troops corresponded to the rank of headquarters and headquarters of the Rothmistra.
Headed was an assistant or deputy Esaul and in his absence commanded the Cossack hundred.
Epauishes of the same design, but with four asterisks.
According to the official position corresponds to the modern senior lieutenant. And the highest title of Ober officer rank - E ESAUL. It is especially worth talking about this rank, as in a purely historical plan, people who worn him occupied positions in civil and military departments. In various Cossack troops, this position included various service prerogatives.
The word comes from the Turkic "Yasaul" - the boss.
In Cossack troops, first mentioned in 1576 and was applied in the Ukrainian Cossack troops.
Esoulys were general, military, regimental, hundredths, striking, hiking and artillery. General Esaul (two on the army) is the highest rank after hetman. In peacetime, the General Esulys performed inspector functions, commanded several shelves in the war, and in the absence of hetman, all the army. But this is typical of the Ukrainian Cossacks only. Esuala was chosen at the military circle (in the Don and most others, two on the army, in Volzhsky and Orenburg - one by one). Engaged in administrative affairs. Since 1835, they were appointed as an adjutant at the military unable ataman. Regiment Esuly (Originally two on the regiment) carried out the duties of the officer headquarters, were the closest assistants of the regiment commander.
Sota and Esuly (one per hundred) commanded hundreds. This link was not inhibited in the Don Troops after the first centuries of the existence of the Cossacks.
Static Esuala were characteristic only for Don Troops. They were chosen on the barn gases and were assistants of the Stanic Atamans. Essules (usually two on the army) were chosen when speaking in a campaign. The functions of the assistants of the campaign Ataman were performed, in the XVI-XVII centuries, in the absence of his army, they were later the executives of the orders of the campaign ataman. The Archlorian Esaul (one on the army) was subordinate to the head of artillery and performed his instructions. The general, regimental, striking and other Esualy were constantly abolished
Only the military essayul was maintained at the military unclean ataman of the Don Cossack troops. In 1798 - 1800. Chin Elaula was equated to Rothmister's rank in cavalry. Esaul, as a rule, commanded the Cossack hundred. Complied according to the official position of the modern captain. I wore straps with a blue lumen on the silver field without asterisar. The headquarters officers go. In fact, after the reform of Alexander III in 1884, Chin Esoula entered this rank, in connection with which Major's headquarters were removed from the headquarters, as a result of which the soldier from the captains immediately became a lieutenant colonel of the Cossack service staircase, then there is a military officer. The name of this rank occurred from the old name of the executive body in the Cossacks. In the second half of the XVIII century, this name in a modified form has spread to persons who commanded certain sectors of the Cossack troops. Since 1754, the military foreman was equated to the Major, and with the abolition of this title in 1884 - to lieutenant colonel. I wore straps with two blue blesses on a silver field and three big stars.
Well, then there is a colonel, the straps are the same as the military elder, but without asterisks. Starting from this rank, the service staircase is uniform with the pancarmesky, since the purely Cossack names of the ranks disappear. Service position cossack general Fully corresponds to the general titles of the Russian army.
Due to the lack of an unambiguous official version, the following information is simplified under the game compilation of information about the army of the Empire, its structure, form and signs of differences. We strongly ask not to request its adjustments to certain realities.
Title
The army of the empire is divided into four "branches":
- Military forces of the Empire;
- Assault units (attack aircraft) of the Empire;
- The Military Space Forces of the Empire;
- Imperial Security Department.
The following titles are indicated in the order of descending status and authority.
The assault units use the same ranks as military forces, with the same status until the major: there are no higher titles in the assault units.
Officer titles are the title, ranging from Lieutenant.
The last column provides a link to the sign of the difference corresponding to a certain level of title. The sign is a metal shield with blue and red plastic rectangles. Red rectangles are replaced with yellow in a sign of special merit in front of the empire. In addition, on the right and to the left of the sign can be marked with a black strip, the presence of code cylinders in the left and / or right pocket of the form.

* - At the time of the game, the decree on the governors of the Governors of the sectors of Muffov has not yet been published.
** - In the ranks of military forces, participants of the clone wars are still preserved with the rank of Commander, which fully corresponds to the title of Major of the Military Force.
The form
The form of officers of military and military-cosmic forces is the same (see illustration and):
- gray-olive pants and two-breasted tunic;
- the gray-olive cap (optional to wearing the rank officers from the general and higher);
- black belt with silver buckle without utilitarian bags;
- black thin leather gloves (optional);
- high-quality black boots;
- differences and code cylinders;
- bluster holster, is usually absent.
Sergeants and ordinary military forces on the game are not modeled.
The Imperial Security Department rarely uses the official form, however, with official events, a white form of classical imperial cut is used with a sign of differences (and code cylinders), corresponding to the rank: see.
Storm units use powerful white combat armor. The signs of the features of the attack aircraft are not worn, because Identification is performed using the built-in helmet sensors. However, in the sky atmosphere, the difference sign can be enshrined on armor (without code cylinders) or on the official form (the standard form of imperial cut, but black - see). In addition, sergeants most often wear a large leather orange shoe on the right shoulder: see. The standard form of attack aircraft is as follows: and.
